supplemented for over 24 hours  Does anyone have a suggestion where I
should go??? Also does anyone have a good policy on this that they would
be interested in sharing."

Check out this article in the Journal of Human Lactation:

Glover, Jacki.  Supplementation of Breastfeeding Newborns:  A Flow Chart for
Decision Making.  J Hum Lact, Vol. 11, No. 2, pp. 127-131.

It gives a step-by-step process to evaluate the baby's well-being and decide
what action is needed.
